Want to plan some travel to Canada? Travelers have the opportunity to travel non stop on Lynx Air from Tampa International Airport and Montreal.

Talk about two great cities to travel to! Toronto has amazing dining and shopping. Make sure if you go to Toronto you pronounce it properly and drop the first "o" in Toronto. It almost just sounds like "Tronto." And Montreal is pronounced with a "Mun" sound at the beginning; not a "mon." These new Lynx flights launch next week. Lynx flies into Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) and Montreal-Pierre Trudeau International Airport four times each week to each city. Lynx is known as an ultra-low-cost air carrier.

Tampa International Statement On New Routes to Montreal And Toronto

The CEO of Tampa International Airport is Joe Lopano and he said, “Tampa International Airport is proud to offer more travel options from Toronto and Montreal with our new airline partner Lynx Air, the first Canadian carrier to launch new service to TPA since the pandemic. Our community is closely linked with our Canadian neighbors, who are the largest source of international visitation, homeownership and foreign direct investment in Tampa Bay. We look forward to better serving our travelers to and from Canada and opening doors to all the wonderful things our growing region has to offer.”

There are only two other carriers, aside from Lynx, that offer nonstop service to Canada.
